He heard water running, and realized Matt was in the shower. He kicked his shoes off aered the bathroom.

"Yama-, it's Tai. I stay the night?"

Yamato's face widened in a smile. "You don't have to ask, cuz you know the answer's always gonna be yes."

Tai smiled too. "Any room in there for one more?"

"I dunno," Matt said, "Dad's been really cheap about renovating this place, so it'll be a tight fit."

Tai chuckled, "Perfect." He stripped down aered the shower with Matt. Fag him, he ed his arms around his waist and leaned his head on Yamato's chest. "How was band practice?"

"It was shit. How 'bout the movies?"

"Ditto." The both smiled again. "You've been drinking again. I smell it."

Yamato gave Tai a stupid grin. "A few beers never hurt anyone."
